Antonio Meneghetti at Petrassi: Ontopsycholgy in Art

December 2006

After 15 years, Maestro Antonio Meneghetti comes back to Rome to play his OntoArte and does it in great style at the Sala Petrassi (Petrassi Hall) of the Auditorium Parco della Musica (Auditorium Music Park) 2.

In his expressions, music is a lyrical moment and, through the concert, one lives the evidence of being in a single identity, you and I, the other and I, Being and I.

A worldwide highly regarded concert artist 3, his fund of experience includes all musical educations. In particular, percussion technique, the spirituality of the Gregorian chant, the metaphysics of Indian music, the polyphonic chorale and classical orchestration, with its relative composition and decomposition.

Maestro Antonio Meneghetti’s artistic discourse begins from a saturation of the teaching that is still held as valid in the most serious academies. As he himself, states, “But at that point, a choice becomes necessary: if we want to live on far stretching spaces, without destroying the preceding one, or you must create a new universe”.

While Bach would maintain that no artist could go beyond the two horizons, Meneghetti proves to be able to create the movement of the third horizon.

Those who know the technique of music (or of composition, or of a way of playing) could consider OntoArte music as a kind of improvisation without conscious rationality. In truth, it is the direct reading of a vision, which is familiar to him; there, the evocation of the universal transcendence is cadenced in a dialogue with the human being’s In-itself.

Every passage is exactly calculated, the timbres and the tonalities are coloured with multi-sided variables with reference to an exact intuition. There is no room for improvisation, “We just let an order, which is always present, glide behind an apparent chance”.

Antonio Meneghetti’s experience shows the capacity of reading the musical pathos in the space of a second.

Then, music is not invented. It is found again.

 

 

1 Promoted by the International OntoArte School Association, under the aegis of Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia (St. Cecil National Academy), Rome Town Council – Cultural Policies Councillorship, Presidency of Lazio Region, Rome Provincial Council – Cultural Policies, Communication and Informative Systems Councillorship.

2 Designed by Arch. Renzo Piano, it has become one of the most important musical centres in Europe.

3 His music is listened to all over the world, which is evidenced by the numerous series of international concerts, like the concert performed at the Peterhof Great Palace White Hall in Saint Petersburg, on June, 13th 2003.

 

 

Young Leaders: what to do? Antonio Meneghetti teaches

According to Bill Gates, young people should follow 11 rules in order to be successful.

Rule 1:  Life is not fair – get used to it.
Rule 2:  The world won’t care about your self-esteem.  The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3:  You will NOT make $40,000 a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with an expense account until you earn both.
Rule 4:  If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5:  Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping – they called it opportunity.
Rule 6:  If you mess up, it’s not your parents fault, so don’t whine about mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7:  Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes, and listening to you talk about how cool you are. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent’s generation, try delousing the closet in your room.
Rule 8:  Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and they’ll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9:  Life is not divided into semesters.  You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time!
Rule 10:
Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop to go to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one! 

In his book “The Apprentice Leader” (FOIL ed.), Antonio Meneghetti writes: “A superior young person must know how to play the systems or rules of the game using these aspects. Even when one wishes to improve society – in fact, one can succeed in a superior manner improving the society that lives with us and in which we live – one must employ superior intelligence when observing the schemes proposed and imposed by the Civil Code. They reveal the will of others and show us how to be respected. Sport champions set new records and are later remembered for having won while sticking to the rulebook. The same is valid for scientists progressing and invalidating previous discoveries. In order to win, one must observe and surpass the rules. History and the thought are written by those who win and know how to teach. It is not the soul’s origin or birth superiority that bring about accomplishment.

The Psychotherapist according to Antonio Meneghetti

A simple doctor is not qualified to understand the facts of psychic intentionality. Closed to the psychotherapist is parapsychical, the priest, the philosopher, the educator, the moralist, the novelist, the artist. Of course it is so in terms of sensitivity (perceptual predisposition). Only after a specific training, the therapist becomes the unique professional of psychoanalysis. It involves three preparations: a natural intuition, study and culture virtually unlimited, that are  life's characters always opened to metabolize the new (intuition, study, experience). All that is the ontopsychologist according to Antonio Meneghetti and Ontopsychology (Ontopsicologia).
